Welcome to Mick Unplugged, where we ignite potential and fuel purpose. Get ready for raw insights, bold moves, and game-changing conversations.
Buckle up, here's Mick. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to another episode of Mick Unplugged.
And today, we have a guest that is a comedic genius who has an unfiltered style of humor and a magnetic stage presence that has been lighting up the comedy scene worldwide. Known for his quick wit and a viral hashtag that we're definitely going to get into in a moment.
He's become a standout performer on the renowned live podcast Kill Tony and a regular at the comedy club closest to you. Get ready for a real and deep conversation with the hilarious, the unapologetic, the unstoppable, my uncle, Mr.
David Jolly. Uncle Dave, how you doing today, brother? Mama, we made it.
We sure did. We sure did.
Hey, Uncle Dave, we're just going to give them the cookout conversation. You can just say David.
That's cool.
David giving them the cookout conversation.
For sure.
They ain't ready for this one.
We ain't going to have to get it.
Then let's go.
Let's go.
So for the world, y'all got to understand my Uncle David, man.
When I talk about a true comedic genius, I really mean that by every stretch of the imagination because Uncle David, you know this just like I know. There's a lot of funny people out there.
Just daily. You make me feel old.
You are old. I ain't number 43, motherfucker.
You look older than me. Man, I am 22 plus 24.
Little brother Dave. Just name it.
So there's a thing. There's a lot of people that can be funny, right? Like we talk about the cookout.
Everybody has that funny uncle that can tell a good joke, have everybody laughing. But there is a big difference when you got to get on stage and people expect you to be funny and expect you to tear their stomach up.
Man, how did you master that? It ain't no plan B, you know what I mean? People say, oh, I want to do this. I don't know the last time I did nothing regular.
If I'm dating somebody, she know, hey, I'm really dating comedy.
You're going to be here
for a minute,
but I mean,
how long are you going
to really last?
Because every single day
I go do comedy.
You know?
Like, I got here
early tonight
because I just want to
see the city of D.C.
and I'm going to
go find somewhere
to get up at tonight.
You know?
People want to do stuff,
but then some people
want to dedicate
the rest of their lives to it.
You know what I mean? You can't make it. You can't be halfway in and halfway out.
Hey, man, I got a show. I got this big opportunity for you.
And you're like, well, I got to go to the movies with my lady. Ain't no girlfriend no more.
Ain't no wife at that. Not if you want to do it for real.
All of that is out of the door. The only thing you're married to is comedy.
And here's what I learned from you. And this is something you taught me, man.
And I mean this genuinely. A lot of people wait for an opportunity or they wait for opportunity to not.
What David Jolly said is, damn it, I am the opportunity. And you you make everything happen, to your point, there is no plan B.
You are the opportunity, man. How do you help other people understand that? Because most people don't get it.
They sit around and wait for somebody to give them something or wait for that phone call. It's 2024, 2025.
Those phones don't ring like that no more. I mean, if I'm cool with you, I'm going to cuss you out about it.
Some people don't understand. They don't understand being nice no more.
Like, if I can't talk to you like a man and we talk to each other like that, then you're just like an associate. If I message you, then, hey, man, I want to see you win.
Or let's just leave each other alone. You know what I mean? Because you can't tell me that you want to do something and then you're going to sit and complain about what could happen.
Are we either going to make a solution for it or you can lay in your own misery? Absolutely. You got to find a solution.
Like somebody told me when I first started doing comedy, my boy Ross McCoy, I was like, so what I do after this? He was like, you bomb a lot. You're going to go to every mic, no matter what it feels like.
You're just going to keep going.
You know, just keep like.
People say they go up a lot, but you have no idea.
You know what I mean?
Like literally live this.
That's it.
Ain't nothing else.
You know?
Yep.
Yep.
I mean, if I just keep going, you just got to keep going. Especially when they look crazy, that means something good coming around the corner.
And that's the essence of life, too. Not even just in the comedy world, but just in life.
I tell people all the time, man, like, there's success just on the other side. Where people fail is they just stop, right? Like, woe is me.
The world is coming. The world is crashing on everybody, man.
Like, everybody going through something. It's those that keep going that see success happen.
And nobody want to hear your misery or your sad sob story. Like, when I ended up in Austin, like, you know, Cam called me when he first moved there.
And like, this was before Kill Tony. This was before all of that.
Like, he called me and I was like, man, how you liking it? And, like, he was like, man, I love it out here. Man, I'm murdering these people.
Like, I'm really destroying out here. So I was like, man, let me check this out.
So my birthday was, like, the next week. So I was like, I'm going to get a flight out here.
He was like, man, you ain't coming out here. So I caught a flight, got there that Saturday.
I did an open mic that Sunday for Comedy Mothership, and I got invited back. So at that point, I was like, oh, this is the way in.
At the point right then, I was like, this is my opportunity right here. I got to make the best of this opportunity.
And then, like, I kept coming, flying back and forth, you know, to come see Cam and to just get up. And then the Kill Tony thing happened when I was there, and it just went like, everything was like off.
But I mean, you would think that's when it get easy, but that's when it get harder because everybody's shooting at you then. Right.
Everybody want to bury you when you're on stage. But I mean, that's where like the gang violence thing come from.
If we on stage, like say we on the same show and I deal with you, I'm like, gang violence? Hey, it's for the kid real. I'm about to go over here and destroy these people.
You better be able to follow it. You know, it's just like iron sharper than iron.
You know what I mean? Just creating monsters, you know? It depends on where you look at it or, you know, like, I believe in just murdering, you know. Yeah.
Straight up. Yeah.
And for all my corporate listeners, he's not talking about like physically murdering. Calm down.
Calm down. I'm like a curse.
Yeah. I should have.
I should have asked. Oh, you can say any.
You can say any and everything you want. This is your world.
Okay. You know, I still try to not get too crazy, you know, try to be somewhat professional.
Everything is everything, man. So how did David Jolly get started? Like that essence, you know, on Mick Unplugged, we like to talk about your because, that thing that really gets you going, your real purpose, your real mission.
What got David Jolly started in the game? I got a buddy of mine named D-Rogue. He's a rapper.
He's a comedian. Like one of my best friends, you know.
And he was about to do a show with these people called Tom and Dan and my boy Ross McCoy. It was a local comedy show.
I never did comedy, but I was always funny, you know. And I never knew where to start at.
i never knew about none of that because i'm from
orlando so i found out once uh i went to the show and i asked him beforehand hey can i get a little time and ross was like nah man it's a real show we don't we ain't letting you up here you're gonna come stink my stage up but then when i got there i had prepared like maybe he might let me on i never really wrote any jokes. I just wrote down some ideas.
So when I got there, I had prepared, like, maybe he might let me on. I never really wrote any jokes.
I just wrote down some ideas.
So when I got there, he was like, you know what?
Just get up.
So I got up.
It was really, really good.
I asked him what to do next.
And he say, you got to live.
This is your new life.
You know, you do this every day.
And that's what I did.
I just stayed at it.
I stayed at it.
I stayed at it.
I stayed at it every day.
Horrible mics.
There's five people in there.
Thank you. you know you do this every day and that's what i did i just i just stayed at it i stayed at it i stayed at it i stayed at it every day horrible mics there's five people in there sometimes they'll be my favorite mics i still go to the mics i'll go from a show at the mothership and go to the creaking cave at midnight just to see if this new material work because i'm not going to do it at the mothership yet you know yeah so so it's like just just going just go and go and go and go and go and it's just everything been falling into place this ain't no process that's happened overnight you know i'm at eight years but but i always knew this was gonna happen i don't know if it sound arrogant or however it sounds but in my brain when i tell myself i'm gonna do something it ain't no maybes it ain't none of that I don't use, though, that verbiage.
You know? You wouldn't have got on the first mic if you didn't see yourself do it. Yeah, exactly.
And that's what I was drinking. Like, I don't drink anymore.
You know, it's been like almost 18 months now. So, you know, I just, when I went back home, and I was kind of still like, hey, I'm happy.
Like, I was on Kill Tony. Oh, everybody know who I am.
And I was like, man, lock in. It's time to go.
This is going to be the next step where your mama ain't got to work no more. You know what I mean? Lock in.
It's time to go. Forget all that drinking and all that nonsense.
Because I used to work in hospitality, so it was second nature to drink, you know? Yeah. I had a drinking problem, though.
I was like real, like all it. the...
Yeah, like a real one. I waited tables for a long time.
I worked in like construction type joint. I used to drive, deliver drywall, operate heavy machinery, all kind of stuff.
You know, just like a normal dude, you know? Yeah. Yeah.
So, what was the key to sobriety and then the important part, the key to maintaining it? Because you live in a world where that's what's going on. You work in an environment where they're giving you the vice right in front of you.
I really don't live in this world, though, mentally. Like I'm usually not even here.
I could be in the same room with someone and not know nothing about what's going on. I'd be so much inside of my mind, you know? But on the next step, you know what I mean? That's just how I operate.
I got to be doing something towards my goal, you know? Yeah. Because ain't nobody going to give it to you, so I'm going to just go take it.
That's how. So for you, it was literally, this is my goal.
This is my mission. In order to get to where I'm trying to go, drinking has to stop.
That's pretty much not the worst. It's always been fun in my life until it got to the point where it's like, now this is in front of you.
And you know this will ruin you because you got to do this all the time now.
You got to always be thinking about this.
There's going to be people that come at you on the internet.
There's going to be people that
just try to... You got to have the
sense
to know, all right,
let me just leave this situation alone.
Because if you're drinking, you might flip out on somebody.
What if you beat somebody up? Now you don't
nobody want to work with you.
When I was drinking, I wasn't an angry drunk. I was probably the happiest guy in the world.
But at the same time, it wasn't fulfilling to 100% to get where I needed to be mentally. So whatever that was, I had to cut it out.
I woke up July 5th, and I said, I ain't drinking no more because I got pretty drunk on the 4th. So I said, you know what? I'm done.
I didn't necessarily have like the shakes and all of that, but in the back of my mind, subliminally, I was like, I mean, subconsciously, I was like, all right, you know you can't drink. And in my everyday process, it was, okay, let me get a drink.
So I would have to say, no, what are you doing? You know what I mean? Because subconsciously, that's just what I did. Yeah, yeah.
And what I'm hearing, David, is you saying, you also realized you were becoming a brand, right? A lot of people think that a brand is a logo, right? No, no, no, no. In 2024, 2025, you are a brand.
Yeah. And everything around your brand, especially again, your own national stages, right? Cameras everywhere.
Everybody in the audience has a cell phone now. Everybody on the sidewalk has a cell phone.
People in the car beside you got a phone. That phone is 24 seven live media.
Now people, you got to realize you are a brand and you have mastered that david jolly is a brand what i like about it is especially being a part of the kill tony universe is i'm never worried about getting canceled most of my subject matter is like it's not counselable it's just from from a different point of view. Like I got all kinds of jokes.
I got everything you name, but you can't be offended by it. Like I got a trans joke where like I tell, and if it's homosexual people, it's been a trans woman.
She was like 6'8", 240 in Atlanta. I'm on stage and I'm thinking to myself like if you think I'm not telling this trans joke you out of your mind and then she laughed at it hysterically and was like man that's a good joke.
So I mean I just want to be that person that like bring back real kindness. Let people say what they want to say.
How come most of the people offended not even the people who we talking about? I ain't seen that one Puerto Rican say nothing or question nothing when that situation happened with Tony. Not one.
Not one person. I mean, I don't really want to make it a race issue.
Maybe it's just a cultural issue. But in that kind of race.
Yeah. We care about everybody else and everybody else's feelings.
Right? Except we don't want to come home and talk about the real. Like, black people, we want to talk about everybody else, like jokes, or everybody else could get it.
Let one white dude say you ate some fried chicken. Oh, you racist.
No, that's prejudice. It's a big reverence.
It's a stereotype that we use to make jokes about other people, but we might be worse than Jewish people. In the sense of like, black, you can't say nothing about us, but we can say everything about everybody else.
I don't care about no jokes. If it's funny, if it ain't funny, I ain't gonna laugh.
If it's funny, I'm gonna laugh. Agreed.
But we always got a defense mechanism
up. Like, everybody's
against us unless we're
with our own people.
And I'd say even other races
the same way, right? I think
the world, to your point, needs to understand
the difference between what's
prejudice, what's
exactly. We need to bring back Archie
Bunker and George Jefferson
Thank you. world, to your point, needs to understand the difference between what's prejudice, what's exactly.
We need to bring back Archie Bunker and George Jefferson.
We need a show like that right now so we can realize, like, hey, man, my dad said something
like this.
He don't mean nothing.
But Archie Bunker was just dumb.
George Jefferson was just dumb.
But that's the way that America thought.
But we was OK with that because we still got to live together. And you're always going to have extremes, right? You're always going to have that extreme that, yeah, they do hate, insert whatever the race is.
They do hate, insert whatever the gender or non-gender is. You have the extremists, but that's the minority, right? Like, that really is the minority.
That hate came from a not knowing it came from the same thing like i'm 43 years old you gotta do this you gotta if i never did that i was been started this journey way earlier but the thing is if i would have started it earlier i would have died because i'm pretty sure i would have got really really famous and got and just something. That would be my norm to be that way, you know, to just be like no understanding.
Like I'm 30 years old. I got a couple hundred million dollars, you know.
I knew this process had to happen, but it happened when it needed to happen. Yeah, yeah.
You know what I mean? Because, you know, our parents told us go to school, get a good job. And I could never really work for nobody.
Like I'll be working with somebody and it'll go on for a while. And as soon as they get comfortable where they think they're going to say whatever they want to.
Like I've never had a boss in my life. You know what I mean? I've worked for companies, but anytime you even insinuate that you got some type of boss complex, I'm going to straighten you right there.
First of all, I don't have a boss.
Second of all, I work for this company and your title is this for this company, right?
So you work for him too, right?
Like, people hated me, man.
It was just, everything had to happen how it had to happen because I know I can't work for nobody.
I wake up and bless you out until you don't talk to me no more. I might be like, oh, I ain't sure.
I love it, man. So you got into the comedy game.
One of the questions I wanted to ask you specifically, again, the genius of David Jolly. From telling a joke to actually writing
a bit, right? Like what was that transformation like from just, again, we're at the cookout.
Everybody can be funny and tell a joke, but when you got to be on stage for 10, 15, 30 minutes,
when you're David Jolly doing 45 in an hour, like you got to be able to write a little bit too and connect the dots. What was that journey and transformation like for you? It wasn't ever hard because I got a buddy of mine named Carmen Rallone that gave me this book called The Comedy Bible.
So I mean like premise, set up, punchline. I keep that in my mind, but a lot of the times I don't even write like that.
That's just a basic formula to off of you know my mind like a computer it's like a you know you know like i need some type of formula sometimes i could come with nothing like sometimes i might just say something funny and i just take it to the stage and i riff on it a little bit and then i try to build a structure off of that sometimes i wake up in the morning and I just write out a whole joke word for word. And I cut out like 80% of it.
And that actually works, you know? I mean, but everybody has their own style of writing. And you know what I mean? The more and more, the blessing that I've had since being in Austin is getting to be around comics that have been successful on this level for so much time and just the genuine love for comedy and just good people that they are.
You know, the good people that they are, they'll be like, hey, man, you know, you ever thought about this? Or like, if you got any questions or, hey, let's go on the road like that. Like, when Cam started doing comedy, because, you know, I'm his mentor, you know, I really don't tell people that because I don't ever want to take away from his shine.
But when he started doing it and the drive that he had, that brought back another level of hunger for me. Like, I was like, okay, let's go.
You know what I mean? Because it was just like, it was back. Because most of the people in Orlando, you know, they just, they're hobbyists, you know? They're competing with each other.
I'm not competing with nobody, but yesterday, me, you know what I mean? Yes, sir. We all on the same team.
I ain't competing with you. What am I competing with you for? You know what I mean? Like, you in the same place, I mean, why would I compete with you when you could tell me nothing about the next level?
That's it.
You know, I mean, it all depends on, like, the seriousness.
What do you see in something?
Like, I wouldn't go and start playing semi-pro football because I don't think I could do it.
You know, and I don't love football that much.
You know what I'm saying?
It's just about focus, man.
Focus.
Lock in. Focus.
Focus. Focus.
Yep that's gonna take you so far in life i'm not mad at the things as like the way i was raised and the way our elders told us how we should go about the next level even though i wish i knew a little bit about this here and stuff that i'm finding out about now as to why this guy never worked in his life because he worked for himself. You know what I mean? Like, so, you know, it is what it is.
No. So you, you mastered the storytelling and then that led you to the world that you're in now.
And I know the story of David Jolly isn't even done, right? Because we're about to see so so many amazing things that are happening I'm putting it in the universe because I believe in you that much man getting to kill Tony how did that happen well Cam got pulled out of the bucket you know he got pulled out of the bucket and just everything just went crazy so So I went back to Orlando. And when I came back, because I was coming back to do spots at the mothership because, you know, I was like, you know, Adam Eger was like, hey, man, whenever you're in town, come and do spots.
You know, so I was flying back like once a month, sometimes twice a month. The only reason why I was still in Orlando is because I had a lease and my son hadn't graduated from high school yet.
So as soon as he graduated, I was gone, you know? So like, what was the question again? Kill Tony. Yeah.
Getting to kill Tony. It was great, man.
Like everybody in there is just good people. Like just can we cam and then it like, I just got an opportunity.
That's what I'm going to say. I ain't going to get too much in there, you know, but it was great.
The opportunity that was presented to myself, I just did what I had to do. Love it.
They love it. It's great, man.
Like, if there's any comics watching this, I tell you, come to Austin. Get away from your local scene because that same guy that's been doing that same thing for 25 years, he may want you to succeed.
He may not want you to succeed. Some people just get to a point where they've been doing it so long, they're just angry.
You got to get away from them people because they don't have no vision no more. They're just ready to die.
They're just going by the pace of day by day, just day by day, you know? So if you know you can make it, get away from your hometown. And it's not knocking your hometown because the people in Orlando love me.
I'm born and raised there. I lived in Tampa for a while, Tallahassee, but I'm a Florida boy.
The people in my city love me, but it's the people that's in your same profession that say that they love you, but then they really don't show it. I'm not mad at them.
I never, it might sound crazy, but even when I first started, I was looking past Orlando. I never even felt like I was a local comment.
I never felt like like
I mean I have no beef with nobody.
I'm cool with everybody but
I just didn't want to follow y'all rules.
I was going to do it my way.
A unique one of one.
Yeah. I had like a little traction
going on building followers
doing these stupid videos that were like I know you
fucking liar and it'll be like a crazy
motherfucker and it'll be me
talking about them. So those were going
viral but then once
Thank you. doing these stupid videos that were like, I know you fucking lying.
And it'll be like a crazy motherfucker. And it'll be me like talking about them.
So those are going viral. But then once like this Austin situation turned out and I, it just, it's getting crazy, but in a good way.
So, so let's go back to that viral moment, right? I tease it in the opener with the hashtag. How did you come up with that freaking concept, dude? Like, and now you're seeing other people starting to do the style that you did, right? Because nobody was doing the videos the way that you were.
Now it's become a thing, right? You mean with, I know you fucking lying. Well, a lot of people make them now and I don't ever say nothing.
I just, whatever. You know, like how you used to be like some crazy stuff, then it'd cut away.
And then it'll be me like, I know you fucking lying. Look at this.
Yeah. You know? Yeah.
I just, I just had to find something that would work because I know just the old school way of moving to New York and moving to LA. And then you got to meet these people.
I want to go around everybody. I don't want to have to...
I'm going to do the work. The work is going to speak for itself, but I don't want how you feel about me to dictate my career.
No, I'll say it differently. You wanted to work, you just didn't have to stand in line.
You didn't have to stand in line. Somebody don't like me and they try to push somebody back.
I've seen it happen. I've seen it happen in comedy scenes where one person don't like this person, and they'll just brush you off.
That person might not even bother nobody. They just don't like that they quiet.
That's crazy. Yeah, but the hashtag and the video viral is crazy.
Still some of my favorite things today. I'll go back and watch something you did eight, nine months ago because it's still relevant now, man.
The first time I got on Kid Tony, that was... I think I only watched like one time.
I couldn't watch it. It was too cringe for me.
You know, it was just... It was too much, you know? I mean, because that wasn't me.
I mean, it was me at the time. And I'm a very fun, outgoing guy.
Anybody know that I say whatever. I don't really care about your feelings, you know, cause you forced me to this point.
But that was just real.
I was sloppy drunk that day.
I was sloppy.
But still funny.
And you were still you.
You were still you.
I'll give you that.
Yeah.
I actually fell asleep next door.
And they were like, where's Charlie?
Where's Charlie?
I'm at the bar.
They woke me up.
I'll see you next time. give me that yeah i actually fell asleep next door and they were like where jolly where jolly i'm at the bar they woke me up i'm running in the rain like really stumbling in the rain not really running but you know then the rest was history they they they say you're on and my brain just say showtime showtime yeah, hey, man, like you bless us with time.
I know you're busy. I want to go rapid fire with David Jolly.
The show. All right.
So from Orlando, what's your favorite restaurant food spot in Orlando? Oh, that's a good question. Flavors.

Yeah.
I love him.
Oh, you know about Flavors?

You don't even have a reason to not like the man, but that come with fame,
so whatever.
Yep.
No, I'm there.
Jordan's my goat, though.
Jordan and Kenny Anderson are my guys.
So they're always.
He was a bad man.
Kenny Anderson is one of my mentors.
Like, we saw every morning he sends me a message.
You play ball, too?
In high school.
Oh, yeah.
I play basketball.
I play basketball, football, and baseball. And and in all three sports I wrote the bench.
They said I paid me a scholarship for riding the bench. I said nah man.

There it is. And then you got the Buccaneers.
You know I'm from Florida so you gotta go with the Bucs, not the Dolphins. I don't like any of those teams.
Who are you gonna say, the Cowboys? I hate them too. So I'm gonna tell you the team, but I'm gonna tell you it's because of family first.
So my uncle is in the Hall of Fame for the New England Patriots. So I was born a Patriot fan.
I wasn't Tom Brady, and then I started becoming a fan. Like, it was when they were terrible.
See, I was played back then. Yeah, I remember the 80s.
Yeah, that's when my uncle was there. I had one good year in the 80s.
Then they almost go to the Super Bowl. They went to the Super Bowl in 85 and lost to the Bears.
Walter Payton ran for 8 million yards and didn't score a touchdown that game. You from South Carolina? Yes, sir.

Last question. Where can people follow and find you? Instagram is Mr.
D. Jolly.
Or go to UncleJolly.com. And I got everything going on in my life as far as show dates and sitting near you.
But Mr. D.
Jolly. Follow that because I need some more followers, man.
All right. It's going to be in the show notes, the description everywhere.
Everybody go follow David. Like, I promise you, there are moments in the day where you just need a laugh or two or three.
David's going to give it to you every day. And he's not even trying to give it to you.
He's just going to be himself and you're going to say, damn, I needed that. Yeah.
You know, and it's funny to where when people can laugh at they self, that's what I want to bring back. Nothing is off limits, you know? It's like back in the days, like at the cookout, if you had a cousin that was a little special, what'd your auntie say? Sit your slow ass down, son.
Sit your retarded ass down, son. Well, you been chomping around y'all goddamn day.
